Tool to automatically grab data from sites
Automatically grab sets of data from websites and download it as a CSV or JSON file. Basically, a small extension that acts as a screen scraper and lets your easily scrape data from a website.
Let's say you have a website with:
<div class="foo">
<span class="name">Joe</span>
<span class="city">Seattle</span>
<img src="profilepic.png"></img>
</div>
<div class="foo">
<span class="name">Jean</span>
<span class="city">Austin</span>
<img src="profilepic_i.png"></img>
</div>
<div class="foo">
<span class="name">Ben</span>
<span class="city">Boston</span>
<img src="profilepic_asbfdsi.png"></img>
</div>
Grab all that data by selecting ".foo" and then make columns for ".name", ".city", and the "src" attribute of "img".
Enjoy your screen scraping!
